I went with Supersprox for mine simply because they made the rear sprocket I wanted so I bought the front from them as well. It is a steel one but has holes in it to lighten it a bit. Their rear ones are aluminum but with steel teeth.

Nice bike! Looks a lot like mine but with a seat cowl on it. Enjoy it!

If you are just lubing the pivot bolt you might be able to get away without removing the cat, but it will be pretty tricky. As long as you can get it angled enough to pull that bearing shaft out you should be good. You might have to move the coolant reservoir out of the way to get enough room...

Will the new VBulletin allow auto-scaling of pictures? A few other forums I am a member of have this feature and it is very nice, especially when writing or reading a build thread or the like. It makes the pictures fit to your screen in threads so you don't have to keep scrolling back and...

This is what your bike should look like at this point. Now that your swingarm is nice and lubed up we are ready to reinstall it. 9. Make sure the end caps are back on the swingarm after lubing, then put the swingarm in place so you can put the pivot bolt back in from the left side. Lube up...

So I'm not sure if someone has already made a how-to thread for this, but as I was upgrading my swingarm to one from a 2008 I decided to snap some pictures and write up a thread on it in case someone is unsure of anything. 1. The first thing to do is put the bike up on the centerstand. It...

Yes, it is a great deal. I have it on my bike, I can post up some pics after work today if you want.

In the US you can order it from Nubzshop. If they won't ship to Norway try PMing Dev_USC, he is the one who originally brought it over. He might be able to work something out, he is always very helpful.

To remove the light itself you have to remove the tail cowl, the part with the grab handles. The lens and housing are a tight fit in there, you have to get them angled to get them out. If you are just talking about getting to the bulb to change it, you can access it once you take the seat off...

Another possibility is that the previous shop/owner installed a speedo healer and it is miscalibrated. My speedo DRD connects under the gas tank, you can see if you have anything aftermarket under there. Good luck getting your license back!

Those are what we use at work to patch (car) tires. They work fine on them, but whenever I get a flat on the bike (have been through three tires due to road hazards) I replace the tire for peace of mind. I have been told even with the patch plugs the tire shouldn't be run at high speeds, and...

That is interesting about the transmission, I wonder why they went with the different design. I'm not too worried about it for now though, simply because there have been a few boosted FZ6s and all they did was get stronger clutch springs. I haven't heard of anyone grenading one due to internal...

Not sure if it is considered an upgrade...bigger engine yes, but puts down less hp to the wheel. I would like to add an XB12R to the stable. I would hesitate about trading though, I have my FZ just about how I like it, except maybe a little power. Also I think the Triumphs are UGLY! From...

I know the fuel system is different, but fortunately most people include the injectors with the throttle bodies and the ECU controls them. The FZ pump should work since people have used the R6 pump as a replacement in the past. The ignition coils differ as well, if I remember correctly the...

As far as I know, no one has done this yet, but it is common knowledge that the R6S makes about 20hp more than our beloved FZ. Given that the engine itself is the same (except the cams and thinner head gasket) the difference lies in the external parts, and looking through the lists of...

I think it looks great! I might have to copy you, that would offset my gold sprocket perfectly.

Mine are allen bolts. :confused: Also careful if you order replacement ones from the dealer. I had one vibrate out from each side so ordered two from Yamaha. The old ones were stainless, the new ones arrived black.:(

Glad you are liking it, the nose dive is the biggest reason I did the swap too. One thing I have noticed is that my new front brakes have a little more drag than they should. How are yours doing? I might have the incorrect shim size for the calipers, or maybe it is just time to pop the...

I can't wait to see it! I would love to have a white bike; I want to paint mine sometime but I'm not sure how it would look with the silver frame, all the ones I have seen were on black frame models.

Yours came with a black fender? My 04 galaxy blue had a color matched fender when I got it. Weird how they change things like fender color.
